Today i recieved a large box with old cameras, lenses accessories etc....

It contained many lenses and some odd lenses which i had never had before, just knew them from this forum as one of them was discussed recently: the Pentor 2.8/100 (left on photo). Indeed the focus ring rotates in the opposite direction than the Tomioka Chinon version.

The other 100mm (right) lens is a large and heavy, very solid and smooth focusing Vivitar with a serial that starts with 4.

Also a 23mm f/3.5 Universar lens, i have a similar focal length branded Pallas, which seems to be the same lens.
(never used it Embarassed , in need of more time!)
It's been around on the forum with some other names on it i guess.....

I'll go out and shoot some examples with them next week to post here.

Good luck, hope your 23 is better than the copy I had. Smile

Vivitar - 42 Bauer, 44 Perkin Elmer, 47 Chinon That could be an interesting lens?

First digits 40xxxxx. It really feels nice and looks good, just did some quick shots with it on the A3000, straight JPG from the camera, looks promising!

wide open f/2.8
